Resumo
In the 1990s, the communities of Rio de Janeiro began to stand out as tourist attractions. As noted by Medeiros (2010), the community as a tourism product is now a fact. Indeed, it is now important to reflect on how this activity can be exploited to benefit community residents. In this sense, assuming the importance of social participation for overcoming a misleading relationship between tourism and development, the paper aims to analyze the development of tourism in a peaceful community, from the perspective of social management. Interviews were conducted with residents, tour guides and police. These interviews were analyzed according to categories proposed by Tenorio et al (2008) for evaluating participatory decision-making processes, namely, inclusiveness, pluralism and the common good. The analysis indicated that the insertion of residents in the development of tourist activities is hampered, leading to advances in economics aspects only. Economic growth is, however, insufficient to generate broader social transformations, which are also involved in the concept of development, as shown by Furtado (2000). Key-words: Tourism, local development, community, peace and social management.
